Programs

ILACSD’s educational programs build on decades of experience to awaken passion within San Diegans countywide. Inspiring change through individual action, we invite all facets of our community to join the effort in sustaining, protecting, and appreciating the natural world around us.

Kids’ Ocean Day San Diego

Kids’ Ocean Day San Diego inspires students to be a voice for change as part of an international movement. Since 1998, I Love A Clean San Diego has partnered with the California Coastal Commission to unite students from underserved communities in environmental education and a beach cleanup, which culminates in the creation of an international art project. This annual event magnifies the importance of the ocean and underscores the connection between students’ inland actions and the health of our ocean. To view images from over the years, click here.
